Job Opportunity It started as a chance to train with companies and increase our chances of getting a job

after graduation.

Leadership The program developed the leadership skills by selecting different team leader for every

course and project..

Thinking outside the Box As the project evolved, we started seeing things differently “technical

wise” and began to think in a business wise.

Teamwork We started working as a team

instead of individuals, work under heavy load, time management,

problem evaluation and solving, and team collaboration.

One Path We started focusing on one path

which we where fond of, and since companies where involved,

it started to grow and evolve increasingly.

Job offering 2 years after the program and before graduation ,students received a real job offer to work in real life situations.

Startup Ideas After 2 years of the program,

students where able to work on an idea that eventually be an

idea for a startup company.
